Have fun with those M42,

Yup, LBA worms!
I've allways been a fan of the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour " so to paraphrase Jeff Foxworthy; YOU MIGHT HAVE LBA IF-
I heard about an old Pentacon Praktica with 2 unidentified lenses and a strobe and bought it sight unseen for $18.00 US delivered.
I haven't even gotten my M42 adapter from Pentax yet!
So Here is what $18.00 got me
1) Praktica LTL3 in rough working condition
1) Pentacon auto 1.8/50 lens clean , clear and smooth
1) Hanimex Automatic 200/3.5 lens very clean for it's age
1) Sunpack Strobe
Who has Knowledge of or experience with these lenses? Are they good, ok or crap?
